We may supplement the information described above with information we obtain from other sources, including from both online and offline data providers.

d. Who We Share Personal Information With

We limit our disclosure of the categories of personal information above to our service providers for one or more business purposes.  

We do not sell your personal information to third parties, including personal information of minors under 16 years of age.  However, as with nearly every e-commerce company, we do share a limited set of data that is gathered when you visit our Site, such as cookies and pixels, with third parties in order to allow you to see tailored digital advertisements.  To the extent this activity is interpreted as included in California’s broad definition of “data sale,” we have provided you with opt-out rights as to that activity as described in subsections (e) and (f) below.

e. Your Privacy Rights

If you are a California resident, you have the following rights under applicable California law in relation to your personal information, subject to certain exceptions:  

  • Right to Know.  You have the right to, up to twice in a 12-month period, request what personal information we collect, use, disclose, and/or sell, as applicable.
  • Right to Delete.  You have the right to request under certain circumstances the deletion of your personal information that is collected by us.
  • Right to Opt-Out of Sale.  You have the right to opt-out of the sale of your personal information by a business. However, as noted in subsection (d) above, we do not currently sell any personal information.  We do participate in behavioral ad networks, and to the extent participation in such networks is deemed to be a data sale under the CCPA, we have provided instructions on how you can opt-out in subsection (f) below.
  • Right to Non-Discrimination.  You have the right not to receive discriminatory treatment for the exercise of the privacy rights described above.  

How to submit a request.  You may exercise any of the rights described in this section by emailing us at privacy@millieclinic.com or writing us at Attn: Privacy Officer, Millie, Inc., 321 Page St, San Francisco, California 94102.

Any request you submit to us is subject to an identification and residency verification process (“Verifiable Consumer Request”) as permitted by the CCPA.  We will not fulfill your request unless you have provided sufficient information that enables us to reasonably verify that you are the consumer about whom we collected the personal information on.  In order to verify you, you must provide us with your first and last name and email address.  These rights are also subject to various exclusions and exceptions under applicable laws.  

You may also designate an authorized agent, in writing or through a power of attorney, to request to exercise the above rights on your behalf.  The authorized agent may submit a request to exercise these rights by emailing the letter of authorization or power of attorney to privacy@millieclinic.com

We currently do not collect household data. If we receive a Right to Know or Right to Delete request submitted by all members of a household, we will individually respond to each request. We will not be able to comply with any request by a member of a household under the age of 13, as we do not collect personal information from any person under the age of 13.

We will respond to your request within forty-five (45) days after receipt of a Verifiable Consumer Request for a period covering twelve (12) months and for no more than twice in a twelve-month period.  We reserve the right to extend the response time by an additional forty-five (45) days when reasonably necessary and provided consumer notification of the extension is made within the first forty-five (45) days. 

Direct marketing by third parties.  We do not disclose personal information to third parties for their own purposes, and we permit you to opt-out of any disclosures of non-identifiable personal information.  However, because California residents have the right to request information regarding such practices under California’s “Shine the Light” Law, please contact us using the information provided at the end of this Policy. You must include your full name, email address and postal address in your email or mail request so that we can verify your California residence and respond.  “Personal information” under this California law means any information that identified, described, or was able to be associated with an individual at the time of disclosure. 

We will continue to update our business practices as direct regulatory guidance becomes available.  For more information on interest-based advertising, please review the rest of this Privacy Policy, including our Cookie Policy.  

f. Notice of Right to Opt-Out

As noted in Sections D and E above, we do not currently sell any personal information.  We do, however, participate in behavioral advertising networks.  To the extent participation in such networks is deemed to be a data sale under the CCPA, we encourage you to visit the Network Advertising Initiative and/or the Digital Advertising Alliance’s Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising for more information about opting out of seeing targeted digital advertisements.  You may also fill out our Contact Form on our website to submit a request.

11. Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect new services or changes in our data practices or relevant laws.  The “effective date” legend at the top of this Privacy Policy indicates when this Privacy Policy was last revised.  Any changes are effective when we post the revised Privacy Policy on the Sites.  If we make any material changes to this Privacy Policy, we will take reasonable measures to notify you via email and/or a prominent notice on our Platform prior to the change becoming effective, and will update the effective date at the top of this Privacy Policy.  You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
